X-Racer test flight video

When Rocket Racing League’s Granger Whitelaw announced last Friday that their prototype X-Racer had performed three test flights the day before in Mojave, he declined to show any photos or video of the flights, and provided few technical details about the tests. There’s still no information about the tests on the RRL’s web site, but there is now an independently-produced video available by Ben Brockert. In an email earlier this week Brockert said he filmed the tests standing outside of airport property, “so that I’d be free to share the video on my terms.” That distance means that the video doesn’t show a lot of details, although you can clearly see the X-Racer make a few short hops off the runway.
